What is New Construction Questionnaire – Alameda County, CA?
The New Construction Questionnaire is a questionnaire that the Alameda County Assessor's Office publishes among its downloadable forms, in the category the Assessor's forms page labels Questionnaire, for property involving new construction in Alameda County, California.
The Alameda County Assessor's Office is the county office that issues it. Its forms page lists the questionnaire by name only; the page prints no form number for it, so it is identified by its title.
It sits beside several related forms on the same page, and each is a separate document:
- Cost Questionnaire For Additions And Alterations - Residential
- Cost Questionnaire For Additions And Alterations - Commercial/Industrial
- Apartment/Household Personal Property Questionnaire (Change Of Ownership Or New Construction Only)
- Builder's Claim For New Construction Exclusion From Supplemental Assessment
- Claim For Solar Energy System New Construction Exclusion (BOE-64-SES)
The Assessor notes that every California county has its own set of forms, so this questionnaire is for property in Alameda County.

The Assessor's Office is at 1221 Oak Street, Room 145, Oakland, CA 94612, and can be reached at (510) 272-3787 or [email protected].
